A super poem for the free verse challenge giving grateful tribute to the doctors and nurses during this time of crisis and also urging all of us to seek God's image - the one that He created humanity to be to act according to His lovingkindness.

Comment from Therese Caron
This is a superb poem. You are right. We can all look out for each other, lend a helping hand, even just talk on the phone to people who live alone and may be quarantined. I love your line about sparkle or sizzle. This is a beautiful poem with a stunning image. Thanks for sharing it!

Comment from Janice Canerdy
This is a very lovely and uplifting poem. Yes, others should see Jesus in us--the professionals involved and ALL of us. Times like these bring out the best in some, the worst in others!

Diana, I thank you! One of our daughters is on the front line in healthcare in Seattle, we pray for her and her colleagues during these tumultuous times. It is she and her colleagues near and around the world that are the real winners!

Yes they are! There could be no worse enemy than one that is invisible. Tell her thank you from me, and that I will keep her and her colleagues in my prayers. We would be utterly helpless without them. xoxoxoxo

Comment from Raffaelina Lowcock
There are so many halos out there that it is becoming difficult to see for the sparkle and the dazzle. What a wonderful sentiment and tribute you have rendered here. God Bless your intentions and foresight. Well done with the engaging picture and superfluous words.

Raffaelina, My whole life I have been able to see the aura around so very many people that have come and gone on my life's journey. It is chilling at times to witness the light of God in so many.

Comment from Patty Palmer
Beautiful!!! All of the first responders, nurses, doctors, all hospital employees from dr. nurses, food preparation, cleaning and even the greeters etc. I just got out if the hospital yesterday with asthma and a fever, Thank God, not the virus! But the nurses were doing their business despite knowing they could come in contact and be ill too. I've been a nurse for over 40 years and I've been there and done that. But the hospital breed, we've always had a certain way to deal with stress. we laugh! We find something funny when it isn/t. So while I as there they included me in their stress mode. We joked. I gave myself my own shots and giggled ourselves silly! I think I saw an awful lot of halos.

Patty, WOW, we share some pretty amazing commonalities, I was an Army nurse for ten years. I am very pleased to hear that you did not fall victim to the virus especially with an asthmatic condition. I am sending you prayer-filled thoughts of peace, acceptance and continue good health during these trying times.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written free verse poem about the halo surrounding a person when we look at them we see their aura that shines through their attitude.

This free verse, Your Halo, speaks to those who choose to calm fears through deeds and cheer up people through efforts designed to comfort the lonely and isolated. Neat.
